LCE Rear U-Bolt Flip Kit
(1979-1995 Pickup / 1984-1995 4Runner)
Introducing another addition to our lineup that you've all been eagerly awaiting! If you've been keeping tabs on our Project 85' build, you might have spotted our specially designed U-Bolt Flip Kit in action. And guess what? Now you can have one for yourself! But what does a U-Bolt Flip Kit do, you ask? Well, it's a game-changer for your off-road adventures. Traditional U-bolts face downwards, becoming potential snag points for rocks and trail debris. Our innovative U-Bolt Flip Kits redirect the spring bolt upwards and out of harm's way, offering enhanced ground clearance and minimizing damage to the threaded section of the bolt. Crafted with precision, these kits feature 9/16" U-Bolts perfectly matched to the axle tube (a notable improvement over square U-Bolts in other kits) and a chamfered bottom plate to avoid cutting into your leaf pack. Grab a set for yourself today.

SAFETY FIRST
NOTE: FABRICATION AND WELDING ARE REQUIRED!
This kit requires the rear lower shock mounts to be relocated to the axle housing. It is possible to retain the upper mounts and add only new lowers or you can switch the upper to an inboard setup for better articulation. Care must be taken not to damage any brake lines and to confirm proper shock lengths are used.
IMPORTANT:
It is very important to torque the U-Bolts to 90 Ft. Lbs. using a quality torque wrench. It is
also important to re-torque them after the first 500 miles of driving.
